Two New Calcium-Rich Gap Transients in Group and Cluster Environments
R. Lunnan, M. M. Kasliwal, Y. Cao +20
We present the Palomar Transient Factory discoveries and the photometric and spectroscopic observations of PTF11kmb and PTF12bho. We show that both transients have properties consi…
Whimper of a Bang: Documenting the Final Days of the Nearby Type Ia Supernova 2011fe
B. J. Shappee, K. Z. Stanek, C. S. Kochanek +1
Using the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) and the Large Binocular Telescope, we followed the evolution of the Type Ia supernova (SN Ia) 2011fe for an unprecedented 1840 days past -…
PTF 13efv - An outburst 500 days prior to the SNHunt 275 explosion and its radiative efficiency
E. O. Ofek, S. B. Cenko, N. J. Shaviv +15
The progenitors of some supernovae (SNe) exhibit outbursts with super-Eddington luminosities prior to their final explosions. This behavior is common among Type IIn SNe, but the dr…
GW150914: Spin based constraints on the merger time of the progenitor system
Doron Kushnir, Matias Zaldarriaga, Juna A. Kollmeier +1
We explore the implications of the observed low spin of GW150914 within the context of stellar astrophysics and progenitor models. We conclude that many of the recently proposed sc…
The bolometric light curves and physical parameters of stripped-envelope supernovae
S. J. Prentice, P. A. Mazzali, E. Pian +14
The optical and optical/near-infrared pseudo-bolometric light curves of 85 stripped-envelope supernovae (SNe) are constructed using a consistent method and a standard cosmology. Th…
Long-rising Type II supernovae from PTF and CCCP
F. Taddia, J. Sollerman, C. Fremling +17
Supernova (SN) 1987A was a peculiar H-rich event with a long-rising (LR) light curve (LC), stemming from a compact blue supergiant star (BSG). Only a few similar events have been p…
